otherwise. The inclemcnt weather of
yesterday morning kept most of the
pOpulace in doors, hut ere the
day clOsnd the sunshine made it
pleasant aud prOmenaders were out in
great numbers. The prevailing subject on
all hands was the election of to-day. The
PrOhibitiouist and contemporaries apostle
might have been heard expressing their
views as they strolled along or occupied
conspicuous positions on some street cor
ner. Instances might be cited of individ-
uals who talked loudly for temperance
yesterday who will lie when they cast their
ballot to-day, and on the other hand many
are the citizens whom the liquor element
is counting upon who will vote Yes
with their tickets. Ii was surmised that
yesterday the number of drunken indiyid
ualS would he greater than usual on the
Sabbath, but it is doubtful if such was the
ease. As the polls opened at 6 O'Clock this
morning the battle has already begun. The
presence of hot coffee and hum at the vot-
ing places is an idea of which many will
avail themselves.

TWO POKER ROOMS
RAIDBD BY THE POLICE YESTERDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
Seven Players Caught in Zach Place The
Largest Docket on Record Tor
To-Day.

Chief Smith is making things whiz In
the way of pulling houses of ill repute and
gambling dens, and the gay CHANDELIERS
had something to talk about again last
evening, two gambling places having been
pulled. Poker rooms have again become
very thick in the city, and they need
wedding out badly. If the police could
get onto the young men who play spider"
for 81 and So a corner, sometimes all
Sunday afternoons, they would make a hit
bv taking them in. They need it.
The ball was opened at an early hour
yesterday morning by two houses of pros
titution being pulled, and followed yester-
day afternoon by a poker room being
raided, and last evening by q similar oe-
currenee, and taking itall tOgetherlt made
a very good Sundays work. lis said
one half the world doesn't know how the
other half lives, and this may give one
half a slight inkling as to how they spend
Sunday, at least.
Yesterday afternoon at $3.50 O'Clock,
Officers Dunlap, McNichols and Watson
went to the house, ll47 Market street,
over Mrs. Mlller's saloon, and gaining an
entrance they found a lively little poker
game in progress. The officers called"
the crowd, and Charles Miller, the proprie-
tor, Chris. McGarel, John Jones, Samuel
Davis, John Bives, w. l.. Golden, and
| George Gordon responded. The crowd
put up" and were allowed to go their
several ways.
! AT half-past nine last night the officers
time Rether important raid. For some
complaint of gambas been a good deal OF
a boat house which liSsiQg carried on IN
water mark on the river bandi at hlgh
Fourth and Fifth streets. The Ssen
il run by Mike Carpenter, and
has been a resort for anywhere from
halfa-dOzen to dozen young men, poker
being the chief attraction. Yesterday
Officers Lukens, Hazlett and Desmond
were detailed to raid the boat, and they
executed their orders in fine style, secur'
ing Carpenter, the proprietor, and SIX
youag men. Five OF the party put up fol
their appearance, and the remaining two
we're locked up. The names OF the young
men are: Dick Turner, George Idamitler,
Edward Brush, James GOsney, Larry Nc
Grail and Ed Colts.
This makes a total of thirty-eight cases
for this mornings court. 1t is worth
noting down in this connection, as show,
inc the fine aesthetic tastes of some of ouI
young men, that the five youths found in
Celia Williams house of prostitution were
all white, and two or three are the sciOnS
of families away up in social circles.
